After-School Programs

Durham Academy's mission is to provide each student with an education that will enable him or her to live a moral, happy and productive life. The Extended Day program, which began in 2002, supports this mission while providing a fun, comfortable and safe place for children to spend their after-school hours. Extended Day has been growing in size and popularity since its inception because it makes the transition between the regular school day and after-school hours easy to manage for kids and parents. In addition, our Extended Day staff is dedicated to providing high-quality childcare that promotes healthy social interactions among children in various grades. Extended Day is a wonderful way for children to explore their interests, make friends and, most importantly, have fun being a kid.

If you need childcare on a day when school is not in session due to parent conferences, professional development or faculty meetings, we also offer all-day care. These days are filled with lots of fun activities and allow working parents to better manage their schedules.
